Alchemist Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Hmmmm! Perhaps, it is because of my background, being a painter, bodywork technician, fabricator, in automotive restoration for over 30 years; having to restore and judge cars at concourse shows, that are rare - knowing that one has to fabricate parts that are non-existent or whatever parts that are found, having to be extensively reworked, that from my perspective I believe this car is nicely done. From the fact it isn't dented up, rusted, a quiltwork of paint etc., The detail of the front grill, non damaged body panels I appreciate. Everyone has their own idea of what color they like. At least the paint looks well applied - cut and rubbed. Also the fact 4 door 610's are scarce and I have never seen one up here in the San Francisco Bay area. So, when I see a complete car like this - I consider it nicely done! I'd hate to think what you guys would say about a 610 4 door I built for someone many years ago due to what people have said to me, from this forum, regarding my NFRA RED Datsun 610 I built back in the 1970's. But perhaps if you gents will kindly inform me what "excites" you about a car so I don't continue to post "bland/boring/mundane" car photos and waste bandwidth. It seems my tastes obviously run differently than the norm here. I'm just a passionate Datsun enthusiast like the rest of you, so pardon this old man for sharing what you gents would consider un-provocative vehicles - LOL! I do appreciate it that you gents were diplomatic enough not to use 4 letter words of description. Bonvo, Thank you for the thought - I'm building a 1983 Datsun/Nissan Maxima Sedan - the 910 platform. Yes, I have seen and admired Sir Zerow's car - thanks for the reminder. Happy Holidays everyone and hope the new year will bring more progress and more exciting projects to share! Sayonara guys - Be well! Ernie Quote Link to comment
Bentaxlebob Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Finally - a nicely done 4 Door! Enjoy! Very nice example of what a 4 door 610 should be. Strangely enough though in Oz and NZ 4 door cars are modified as well as 2 door coupes. But here in the US 2 door automobiles seem to be the norm. At least in the classic car scene. Modern cars broke that rule in the US, nowadays 4 door sedans like Subarus, BMWs, Mercedez, Toyotas and many more not only get attention and get modified, but many come factory performance modified. Oz is full of 4 door 180B,s B210s, RX Mazdas and many other cars modified to performance specs. Wonder what size tire/wheel set up this BlueBird-U has on. Thanks for sharing that video clip.

Burabuda Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 @alchemest we've already seen that car (do you hm and read 610s unite thread) and your nfra red was badass (shame on you for selling it) NYWAY, the goofball who does that video has got the most irritating voice and mannerism ruins it for me Quote Link to comment
